Best of Jackson 2013 - Art Garden at the Mississippi Museum of Art
"Cities are often described as "concrete jungles" because of their abundance of large, modern buildings, often perceived as unpleasant and devoid of green spaces. The Art Garden at the Mississippi Museum of Art, which opened in 2011, is a thriving green space in downtown Jackson designed to bring nature into the heart of the city. The Art Garden is a 1.2-acre park where "community and culture convene," according to the Mississippi Museum of Art's website."
